A rare Amritsar Antique Rug. Sourced from my comprehensive catalogues of current and past auction items.
A classic Persian Heriz or Serapi design provides the point of departure for this elegant and reserved Amritsar. A grand medallion and cornerpieces emitting jutting vines and palmettes dominates the field, with the bold angular drawing comparable to the best Serapi. But unlike the Persian carpets with such designs, this carpet does not apply a vibrant palette of reds, blues and greens. Rather, it displays a subdued palette of gentle mauves, cocoa, tan, and gold in field and border alike, which makes it a first-rate decorative carpet.
Please note the original dimensions of this rug. Although supplied as modifiable, over stretching may distort the pattern. Also note that as a representation of a handmade product it may have less than perfect linage. This part of the beauty of such a rug.
